gustavo berocan veiga draws players as letters for world cup typeface (above) A is for agentinaall images courtesy of gustavo berocan veiga

majorca-based illustrator gustavo berocan veiga has drawn every letter of the alphabet, including all of the numerals, thematically related to the ongoing FIFA world cup. each football-themed letterform that makes up ‘association ball cup typeface’ relates to either a participating country, type of fan, sports stadium, star player or game-winning move. for example, ‘I’ for italy is made up of a standing andrea pirlo bouncing a ball on the top of his head, and ‘D’ for dribble sees a player kicking the ball between his feet. the project has been created for ‘36 days of type‘, an initiative that asks designers and illustrators to submit their own view on the signs from our alphabet.

designboom's comment policy guidelines generally speaking, if we publish something, it's because we're genuinely interested in the subject. we hope you'll share this interest and if you know even more about it, please share! our goal in the discussion threads is to have good conversation and we prefer constructive opinions. we and our readers have fun with entertaining ones. designboom welcomes alerts about typos, incorrect names, and the like. the correction is at the discretion of the post editor and may not happen immediately.

what if you disagree with what we or another commenter has to say? let's hear it! but please understand that offensive, inappropriate, or just plain annoying comments may be deleted or shortened.

- please do not make racist, sexist, anti-semitic, homophobic or otherwise offensive comments. - please don't personally insult the writers or your fellow commenters. - please avoid using offensive words, replacing a few letters with asterisks is not a valid workaround. - please don't include your website or e-mail address in your comments for the purpose of self-promotion. - please respect jury verdicts and do not discuss offensively on the competition results (there is only one fist prize, and designboom usually asks renown professionals to help us to promote talent. in addition to the awarded designs, we do feel that almost all deserve our attention, that is why we publish the best 100-200 entries too.)

a link is allowed in comments as long as they add value in the form of information, images, humor, etc. (links to the front page of your personal blog or website are not okay). unwelcome links (to commercial products or services of others, offensive material etc. ) will be redacted. and, ... yes, spam gets banned. no, we do not post fake comments.
